Foley Neuroscience Centre at The Austin

Last Tuesday a small, yet dedicated group of young science buffs fought the foul weather to make their way to the Foley Neuroscience Centre at the Austin to participate in a science experience designed by the Neuroscience lab team. Students participated in a range of activities designed to teach them more about the mysteries of how the human brain works. They also conducted an experiment to extract DNA from a strawberry. Finally, they visited the Radiology unit and were given a guided tour by one of the Radiologists at the hospital. 

Students who participated in the program are now enthusiastically designing student-led workshops to share their new skills and knowledge with other students in our Learning Community. Special thanks to Carmen Lahiff-Jenkins for working with the Foley team to arrange the visit.
